Raw Walnut Cranberry Energy Ball

Hi all, we were on holiday to Paris for the last few days, we have a wonderful time and wonderful weather over there.

Suppose this recipe was posted before I head off to France, but I forgot it during the rush and I couldn’t post in the hotel because the network over there was terrible, sorry!

And this was what I prepared for the journey to Paris, the recipe was full of protein and without any sugar, but full of nutrients for my long hours coach journey. Sorry about the late! :p

I still get crazy about the ‘no bake’idea in my kitchen, thanks all that gave me this great method.

And the great advantage of this recipe are: we can get the best nutrients from the raw food; lots of way to create your individual like – just use your creative intelligence. Meanwhile we can save our gas or electric bill ~ that’s a main things for economic crisis. So, why not get crazy!

Invite your kids to get involve the rolling and coating, I think they love to join in this activity during the summer holiday. Have fun with them.

These healthy little balls are great as a snack for your kid’s lunch box or adult’s bento box. They are no-bake, low carb, no-sugar, gluten-free and vegan.

The next few days, we will have a trip to Paris , I will make these healthy balls for my journey’s snack, wish I can find some vegetarian or vegan food over there, esperically I wish the weather will be good.

Method:

Soak the pitted dates into warm water for at least 2 hours before you make this energy ball, drain and reserve the liquid.

Toast the nuts, whatever your liked. Set aside

Put the toasted nuts, into a food processor, you can blend it into fine form or just coarsely ground to suit your liked.

Add the remaining ingredients except the nectar and sesame seeds, start to blend it all and they start to come together, if the mixture seems a bit dry, slowly add the nectar now until it meet your deserve.

Take about one tablespoon of the mixture onto your palm, roll into a ball and dump into the sesame seeds, play around and set it one a plate, done! 🙂

The last step is stuff into your mouth!

Note:

No matter of what kind of the nuts, it will work on this recipe, just do whatever you have or you like.

You can swap the sesame seeds to some toasted desiccated coconut or even cocoa powder.
